Aug. 23 will be Stevens Square Community Organization’s Block Patrol day in the city of Minneapolis.

City Council Vice President Robert Lilligren (6th Ward) honored members of the block patrol at the Council’s Aug. 5 meeting. The group, among the oldest neighborhood block patrols in the city, is celebrating its 20th anniversary this month.

The group formed in 1991 to combat rising crime in the neighborhood, including drug dealing and prostitution.
